That's just weird. My polling station was literally right outside the station I use to go to work. I wanted to register a protest vote in a safe seat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's looking like cock and balls for the constituency vote and Green on the list next year tbqfhwy. I find the pencil to small for doing some proper cock art so I just place my combo onto an ink pad then plop them on the voting sheet in the booth disclaimer - don't wear light coloured chinos when voting Edited November 19, 2020 by dirty dingus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyderspaceman Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 (edited) The government has confirmed £300m in emergency funding for spectator sports in England, with rugby union by far the largest beneficiary. Is that a devolved thing? eta “Britain is a sports powerhouse, and this government will do everything we can to help our precious sports and clubs make it through Covid.” Edited November 19, 2020 by cyderspaceman 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't mind if it was an urban myth or not. We get it in an update almost every election evening in some form with this sort of thing happening. I think there is truth in it, electoral commission have guidance for returning officers and election agents here (wrong election but think the material is the same), guidance is that a first preference doesn't necessarily need to be indicated through a cross in the box and as long as it's 'clear' and the ballot is otherwise fine with the right watermarks etc, it can't be rejected. Once the returning officer makes the call, that's it official unless anyone wants to take it to court. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the same in 2014 - I was neither (at that time) a supporter of independence nor a supporter of the status quo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean, when people read him rant that every single thick JOCK who DARES consider independence is a filthy NATTER who doesn’t appreciate the benevolent, tumescent-nippled tiddies of Mother England, they don’t suddenly think, “hey - that old racist guy is right. NO SURRENDER!”? I’m shocked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
